“This case gives me a bad feeling,” said Werner Berger, 36, who said he was at the trial because he had studied history but also because he lives in the same small town as Mr. Scheungraber. “It’s always only the Germans who they go after, never the Soviets,” he said. The accused was “not a camp commander, not in the SS,” Mr. Berger said. “What is the point?”

Webmaster's Commentary:

The point is to wave "Holocaust" and "Nazis" at us all one more time so we will not dare to complain about being forced to pay for the white phosphorus dropped all over Palestinian school children.
